The Touhou Project and Us
"Bullet hell? Lolis? Sicknasty music?! Oh my!"
What is Touhou? Click here!
The Touhou Project (東方Project) is a series of 2D (with 3D background) vertically-scrolling danmaku shooting games made by Team Shanghai Alice, with three fighting game spinoffs co-produced with Tasogare Frontier. They are similar to regular shooting games, but focus more on weaving through complex patterns containing anywhere from dozens to hundreds of bullets. Every game in the Touhou series is set in the fantasy land of Gensokyo, and the series is known for its huge cast of characters, well-developed storylines, and related materials such as music CDs, fan-made comics and animated videos made to the music. (Description by Touhou Wiki)
Touhou's reaches are far and vast, finding homes in every game and community. Knowing this, you can always take comfort in knowing you are never alone. Whatever type of follower you are to our beloved series, we here at Scarlet Gensokyo welcome you. Spiral Knights has become our latest adventure and we'd love to have you along for the ride. You needn't have 0cc'ed TH06 on Lunatic, memorized all of the one-hundred plus characters, or be able to recite all the score Zun ever wrote, but here, we'll be glad you tried. :)
For invitation inquiries, please contact any of the following though in-game mail or chat: Shameimaru, Katmint, Chiruno, Remiliascarlet, or Sick.
Servants of Scarlet Devil Mansion
Simple russian student. From Touhou series I prefer fightings, though even more I like playing OSU!'s beatmaps, based on Zun's tracks remixes.
Currently enjoying: MuvLuv, Alice Madness Returns, Ar Tonelico 2, Anki.
Concerning battlestyle, my favorite are berserk sword attacks. I dislike guns and bombs, but use them when it's necessary. Honestly, I suck at JK, I failed it ~10 times and, well, ready to fail some more ==/.

The first time I ever played a Touhou game was in 2002. EoSD was my first introduction to bullet hell, and I was always amazed and confused as to why and how so many bullets could be on screen at once. I was hooked at day one. I played all the games, listened to all the music, explored fanworks and enjoyed the many, many remixes. It was all great, to be sure. But, primarily, it was through Touhou that I found out about the Shoot 'em up genre, and for that reason it's always had a special place in my heart. These days I've moved on to Cave's works, but I'll forever and always be a Touhou fan.
I'm a bomber, through and through. But when I'm feeling less confident or off my game (or my ISP's acting up), I pick up a sword and have at it. I like bombs a lot. Even though they've been nerfed to hell since the preview beta, I like making the most of what's given, which is still pretty good. You'll often see me charging directly into enemy lines. This is normal. Taking huge risks is a small part of how I fight.
Here's my userpage.One of the (comparatively) older guild members at 23, Sacre's a microbiology major at UC San Diego and a bit screwed up. Still, she means well and tends to use her resources to help others, and tries to be nice. She is more of Touhou fandom than of the games due to sucking at bullet hells, but hey, cool music and they are pretty. Also likes corgis and puns, and has cosplayed as a (short) Yukari before.
Combat-wise, I'm a bit reckless and usually end up being the first one dead. To make up for it, I tend to revive people first and am willing to use my own energy to cover everyone else's tush. I also have a headset if desired.An 18 year old Graduate living in a luxury hotel room in Ocean City, Maryland, Aya has played every Touhou game in the series, but plays other leet games as well(I'm a gamer for crying out loud.). My favorite stuff of Touhou is the music, so you can Figure I'm a music freak.
As for Battle-style, I specialize in Guns. I am a Wild Gunslinger who likes to shoot rapidly from afar. But don't think I'm hopeless when it comes to getting close and personal. i've got plenty of swords with me. only downside is i have never gotten a decent bomb, so I'm not used to them yet. all my energy goes into crafting, so very rarely do i use it for revives unless I'm alone or we all died(lol).You don't discover Touhou, it discovers you.
An arrangement of ZUN's music mysteriously ends up in his ipod. Like an infection it grew, one song leading into another, eventually establishing itself entire playlists' consuming over 10 gigabytes of hard drive space. Everything he's grown accustomed to expecting in video-game-music had been loli-fied.
Geeked since birth, he's been a console gamer for over 18 years and made the switch to PC gaming 2 years ago. Trolling the cyber-webs in and out of school, he is currently studying Computer Networking at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Never leaving his other passion behind, he pursues Music on a Minor scale. When his housemates aren't around to complain, he bangs his drum set like Donkey Kong on crack.
An average shmup player at best, he has managed to 0cc some of the series games on Normal. Usually fond of games of the fighting calibur, his SF4 TE fightstick has traded Hadoukens for Master Sparks. Spiral Knights is his primary MMO. And is among the select few who were granted Groundbreaker Armor, having played the game since its testing stages.
In between gaming session, he often likes to unzip--...
"Hey! Who the hell are you!? Who told you to write stuff about me?"
*Sick unleases danmaku. Drops dead* (Continue? No.)
"Now, back to tea-time with Remilia-sama.."At 21 years old, you'd think this recent addition to the guild would have more important things to do with his time than kick ass and take names at an online MMO, but that's just what he's here for. A jokester at heart, he's just about finished with his Film/Video/Media Studies degree at WMU, along with THREE minors in Japanese, Journalism, and Psychology. As if that wasn't enough, he also does professional voiceover as a hobby turned career. Wowzers!
Of course, such a hothead has a fiery battle temper to match. You can find him favoring a good number of the high-end swords, but lately he also has been quite privvy to status bombs as well thanks to a few lucky CTR UVs. You'll generally find him tossing out the boombooms when there's large crowds of enemies or wide open spaces (or even narrow ones), but switching to that trusty sword when it comes time to pick off the remaining few. He also LOVES Death Arenas, so don't expect to sneak by them if he's in the party and one appears. Perhaps his affinity for bombs came from the introduction of Blast Network?...
Oh, yeah, he rocks at that too. Ask anyone else in the mansion; just don't end up on the receiving end if you go against him.Utsuho-Reiuji is a active gamer, and plays at least one video/online game a day. He's intrested in Japan and it's culture, and is a big Touhou fan. He's not the best, but atleast he can play on Normal Mode. Despite being highly competitive, he likes playing MMO's, like Spiral Knights.
He favors using strong swords and rapid-fire handguns. After getting a Leviathan Blade, a Triglav, a Valiance, and a Plague Needle, he plans to use bombs more often, the one's with huge explosions. Why? Because since he's a Utsuho fan, he has to bomb the heck out of enimies. While crafting items in a Alchemy Machine, he'll eventually get UV's on his cherished items. He enjoys fighting bosses, and enjoys fighting in arenas. When he spots an injured member of the party, he'll try to get a chance to revive them.A regular Californian person that has played most of the games in the series. I do look/watch/listen to certain fan-made content, but if you suggest one to me, please keep it slightly appropiate.
As for me In-Game, I typically use swords, and use guns as a last resort. I use bombs not so often though, and I also try to conserve energy/resources as best as possible. To find me, that's easy, I'm the one that spins around alot. (Like Hina of course.)
